He's been playing professional hockey for an incredible 36 years, and it finally paid off yesterday.
With his 1099th professional goal, he broke Wayne Gretzky's seemingly unbeatable record. This can only be accomplished by a man with such an incredible commitment to the sport, which Jagr has.
He may finally be close to retirement, but it's safe to say he'll hold this record for a very long time.
Beating Gretzky's records is already crazy. Doing it at nearly 51 years old is down right insane.
